Signed book: Blinds & Shutters. Limited edition, numbered 1760/5000. England: Genesis Publications, 1990. Hardcover with presentation box, 11 x 15.5, 368 pages. Signed on a special tipped in page in various inks by George Harrison, Bill Wyman, William S. Burroughs, Peter Blake, Neil Aspinall, Colin Self, Brian Auger, Larry Bell, Adam Cooper, Terry Doran, and Nicholas Monro; and further signed and inscribed at the top in ballpoint, "To Hillary, Merry Christmas 1990, Love, Ringo Starr." In fine condition, with light wear to the box.
This remarkable book was created as a tribute to rock and roll photographer Michael Cooper—the photographer behind the famous Sgt. Pepper's album sleeve—and features over 600 of his images, many of which were previously unpublished. The books in the limited edition were signed by various groups of Cooper's friends, and this is a particularly desirable combination of Harrison and Starr of the Beatles, Wyman of the Rolling Stones, Sgt. Pepper’s cover artist Blake, and other cultural notables of the 1960s—a truly magnificent work.
